HOT CORNER

1 PRO FOOTBALL: The Green Bay Packers have boosted their special teams by re-signing linebacker Eric Wilson. The 29-year-old Wilson had 13 special-teams tackles in 2022 and 11 more last year to lead the Packers in each of those seasons. He also had 24 tackles on defense last season. He made a critical fumble recovery at the end of teammate Keisean Nixon’s 73-yard punt return during the Packers’ 24-21 NFC divisional playoff loss at San Francisco. Wilson previously played for Minnesota (2017-20), Philadelphia (2021) and Houston (2021).

2 FIGURE SKATING: American figure skating star Ilia Malinin is a world champion — and a world-record holder. Malinin put on a dominant display that included a jaw-dropping six quad jumps to snag the men’s singles crown Saturday night at the world championships. After placing third in Thursday’s short program, the 19-yearold scored a world-record 227.79 in the free program to bring his total to 333.76 — more than 20 points than the rest of the field. Olympic champion Nathan Chen, also of the United States, set the previous free program record of 224.92 in 2019.

3 PRO BASEBALL: The Chicago White Sox have re-signed Kevin Pillar two days after they released the veteran outfielder. Pillar was in camp on a minor league deal before he was cut Friday. But Chicago announced before its spring training game against Colorado that it had agreed to a big league deal with the 35-year-old Pillar. Pillar played for Atlanta last year, hitting .228 with nine homers and 32 RBIs in 81 games.

4 COLLEGE WRESTLING: Carter Starocci and Aaron Brooks of Penn State have joined an exclusive club of four-time NCAA wrestling champions.

The Nittany Lions also got championships from Levi Haines at 157 pounds and Greg Kerkvliet at 285 on their way to a third consecutive team title.
